How many full moons is there in the year?

Answer 1

In simplistic terms, the moon orbits the earth 13 times in a year. However, nothing is simplistic, in reality, the Moon will rotate around the Earth about 13.37 times.

Answer 2

The moon completes a cycle of phases every 29.53 days, so there are 12.37

complete sets of phases in 365.25 days.

Depending on when the first Full Moon is, there are either 12 or 13 total in

that year.

There are always 12. And if the first one occurs by January 10, then there's

enough time after it for 12 more by the end of the year.

And there's another, more elegant way to look at it: All of the moon's phases

are seen 12 times every year. And all of those those phases that occur during

the first 10 days of January are seen one extra time that same year.

Answer 3

361 times a year.

Answer 4

Thirteen because it takes a little less that 28 days for a compleat moon cycle. Devide 365 days by 28 days and you get 13.

Answer 5

There are nearly 3 every year
